Seawater experience - Mediterranea


Summer! Finally a bit more free time to enjoy with the family and share potato chips reviews.

Here we have the alleged first potato chips producer replacing common salt by seawater.

The potatoes are soaked in seawater before being fried in a mix of olive oils. Directly afterwards the chips are packed, without any added salt.

At first, these chips taste like eating non-salted or low salt potato chips. But then one realizes that the taste is very uniformly distributed in the whole potato. Not a single salt grain on the surface of the chips. All the potato chips, even the last one at the bottom of the packaging (usually too salty) will taste as good as the first. 

The chips are neither bland nor salty. Simply something else ;-)

Salted chips Original - LantChips

We found another jewel in the north of Europe. 

The eldest son of the Arnegård-Hansen family had special needs. They dreamed of change and of a life centered around their family. And they created LantChips together, after coming across a small company that sold home-made potato crisps in North America. 

Small chips of authentic potato flavor in a well packaged bag full of history and good reasons. In the front of the bag Mr Alströmer is depicted, not as a Roman hero in laurels, but as the pioneer of the potato culture in Sweden. In the rear some explanations as to why these crisps crunch and taste so delicious only using sunflower oil, salt and a natural production process.

Pretty thick, partly unpeeled and small chips crunch and echo in our mouths, while we cannot avoid our hand wanting to reach the next perfectly cut and salted chip to go the same way as the previous. 

Congratulations!
